This machine is not very stable, so I don't know if other people experience the computer stop responding when trying to halt or reboot, at portmap. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

--- Begin Message ---Sorry, your bug is not correct: > update-rc.d portmap start 43 S . start 32 0 6 . stop 81 1 . >/dev/null > > portmap should stop at levels 0 and 6, not start. It might be strange, but *even* 'S' scripts/symlinks [1] at /etc/rc{0,6}.d/ get called with the 'stop' argument so the services *are* stopped in those runlevels. The main difference is that they get called *after* the 'K' links. See /etc/init.d/rc: case "$runlevel" in 0|6) ACTION=stop (..) S) ACTION=start (...) for s in /etc/rc$runlevel.d/S* do (...) startup $ACTION $SCRIPTS done Yes, it might be counter-intuitive, but that's how it works. Notice also that /etc/rc6.d/S32portmap runs after /etc/rc6.d/S31umountnfs.sh, so that NFS mounts are properly unmounted before the portmapper is stopped. This happens *before* /etc/rc6.d/S40umountfs (which unmounts all the other FS) and /etc/rc6.d/S35networking or /etc/rc6.d/S36ifupdown, which drop networking. If you computer halts when portmap is stopped the issue might (or might not) be related to portmap. Regards Javier [1] portmap is not the only one doing this, check out the output of running 'ls -la /etc/rc{0,6}.d/S*'
